We have been driving by Porter Gastro Pub heading to one restaurant or another several times and always say "we need to check that out!" Well this was the day! It is a very cool vibe and folks had dogs on the patio (I am a sucker for anything dog friendly). The inside was a cool industrial zibe that I loved.

Looking over the menu there were so many great sounding things! We ended up going with the list below and the Pork Belly Slider, Oxtail Croquette and Country Pate were all so flipping great! The Pork Belly Slider is a "small plate" and was only one so we had to share, I really wish we had gotten more because I could have stuffed myself on just that.

The Oxtail Croquette was crazy good... I can't explain it... just do it! We talked to the chef and if I remember right he said they braise it crazy long in wine. SOOO tasty

I am a big fan of pate, and their country pate was a really nice pate and I would definitely get it again, but the big WOW for me was the homemade pumpernickel bread. Carb Crack.
